Food diaries are an excellent self-monitoring method for those who like to be in control of their weight loss. You’ll need to keep to your normal habits for seven days prior to starting to slim. Make a note of all the things you have, and be scrupulously honest! A week on, you’ll have a record of what’s keeping you at the weight you are now.

Doctors talk about our body mass index when they refer to weight issues. We’re considered healthy if our BMI is between 18.5 and 25. Above twenty five, and we have a problem with our weight. What’s more if we take that figure over thirty we’re defined as obese – over forty and the definition is morbidly obese.

Some folks appear to have it all – and everything they do seems to fall easily into place. Conversely, others struggle with everything they do, and can always give you a reason why life is so difficult. It usually comes down to attitude, where the victors maintain a good attitude, and the victims maintain a poor one.

As we consider how our lives should be in the future, mental images pop into our heads. Perhaps we think of having a really good relationship, with more expensive holidays and a luxury home. It’s probable we’ll view our figure differently – with less body fat and a more toned physique.
